Description
First beginning service in 1968 as the harbor utility craft YFU-79, this vessel was used during the Vietnam War before its conversion into a helicopter landing trainer. Today, it hosts guests with a menu of lobster rolls, fish tacos, burgers, and sandwiches. The vibe is casual and cool, though some find it can get loud. Visitors should also note that the access ramp moves with the water.
